And had various thickness of plates made up to support the trans and position the wishbone as close to the factory position as possible.

Also the adapter from Kato kings is top notch, beautiful work.

First time I have ever did this type of project, but followed it thru and turned out great, can’t wait to drive it one day.
James,
You deserve a lot of credit on a number of levels.
Now that while I don't get in to the customizing end of these old cars, I DO appreciate those that do when they actually take their time and "do it right". It's obvious that you sir are one of those few.
I have watched this transmission adaptation since it's beginning and am amazed at the guys that thought this out and followed it through to a finished product.
So to all of you, yep, you too James, I say CONGRATULATIONS on a job well done!
